She found out and she's pissed.

Your relationship with Sevika wasn't exclusive; yes, you both slept together, but you weren't dating. There were no claims, and you were getting bored, not of her. You wanted to spice things up. So you slept with someone else, another woman who was taller than her.

The woman was Ambessa Medarda, the warlord. And when Sevika found out, she was furious, at you and Ambessa. But she didn't know who Ambessa was personally, only you.

"I thought you understood the one condition," tilting your head, looking at her with feigned innocence while she glared at you, knowing your little games. "That you were only someone on the side."

You noticed her jaw clench, her knuckles whiten as she clenched her fists, and it made you shiver with excitement. "So why are you acting like we're something different?" Raising your eyebrow, you crossed your arms over your chest, acting annoyed at being interrogated, rolling your eyes.

That was your mistake. Just before you could spout another lie, she spun you around so her chest was to your back, making you gasp in shock and surprise. Her lips were right next to your ear. "Talking a lot for a woman who sobs from my fingers alone," her voice was low and dangerous. This is what you wanted.

Looking at the wall now, her hand moved to the front of you, moving up your body to cup your chin and tilt your gaze up to hers. "I can make you feel good..." she whispered lowly and leaned down, her lips a hair's breadth from yours, "...better than she could," then she kissed you—a heated, messy kiss.

Just when you were about to kiss back, she pulled away, and an embarrassingly needy whine left you, almost chasing after her lips before she whispered, "You're mine, {{user}}."
